2. LIHOP is like the Latin IHOP right?
And MIHOP is like Mediterranean style?

3. Kidding!
(I put that I'm going to IHOP tomorrow, which I probably am, after services at my progressive church - Temecula Valley Church of Religious Science).

Actually, let me see "Made it Happen on Purpose" and "Let it Happen on Purpose."

There's quite a bit to suggest that they just let it happen - despite 58 warnings or so.

4. Voted other because
you asked if we know what they are, not if we believe them or not. Semantics. And I'm trying to get away from abbreviations, as I believe we are, as a society, getting lazy and abbreviating everything. Oops, sorry, thats a pet peeve, I guess. Or possible insanity, I don't really know.

23. Pet peeve
They don't always make a lot of sense. I'm a DC native so I'm used to people speaking alphabet soup.

5. I am starting to think about how good IHOP's breakfasts are.
Caloric, but good.

6. They didn't NEED to MIHOP
There was TOO MUCH proof that it was going to happen....all they had to was sit back and wait!

7. "Other"
I'm on the fence between the "official story" and LIHOP. I think that it's impossible to differentiate between incredible ineptness and planned ineptness. Some documentation would help.

8. Bin Laden was a CIA creation.

The Bush and Bin Laden families are very close.

Bush blocked investigation of Saudis, even though most of the hijackers were Saudi.

Bush had absolutely no reaction and no change of prior plans when told of the first WTC crash, and no reaction whatsoever in the classroom when told of the second one. So he knew.

The PNAC called for a "new Pearl Harbor" to justify war, and Prescott Bush supported the Nazis who used the Reichstag fire to justify their takeover. So it seems like fascist tactics as usual.

For these and many, many other reasons, I believe that the BFEE made it happen on purpose. MIHOP all the way.

9. Did you ever wonder
Did you ever wonder if the Bush administration won't investigate the Saudis because the trail would lead right back to them? I have to admit it has crossed my mind.

Er, have you seen my hat? :tinfoilhat:

12. As a matter of fact, I've had that thought. They won't investigate

themselves, whether they've rigged elections, started an unjust war, stolen trillions of dollars from the defense budget, or killed U.S. citizens to terrorize us into letting them do whatever they want. It doesn't matter what they do, because they control the executive, legislative, and judiciary branches of government, the mainstream media, and all military and enforcement agencies. They can do whatever they want and that's exactly what they do. There is no way to bring them to justice, even if we find a few million smoking guns. They do not recognize the World Court.

Prescott Bush helped put Hitler in power. After WWII the CIA brought Nazi war criminals to the U.S. Prescott's son, George Herbert Walker, was CIA and then President. Prescott's grandson is now (p)resident. The BFEE has been working since before WWII toward the fascist takeover of the U.S., which is now a fait accompli.

The IRS is currently investigating the NAACP for the alleged misappropriation of some Thanksgiving turkeys. Rest assured that they will be brought to justice for this heinous crime. And it will get plenty of mainstream press.

10. I'm in the MIHOP Corner
I won't enumerate all the reasons I believe they MIHOP, but I believe this document constitutes the smoking gun - the stand down order.

http://911research.wtc7.net/planes/analysis/norad/docs/intercept_proc.pdf

'Jim Hoffman has discovered a document which I believe may be very important to the 911 skeptic movement. This document superseded earlier DOD procedures for dealing with hijacked aircraft, and it requires that Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld is personally responsible for issuing intercept orders. Commanders in the field are stripped of all authority to act. This amazing order came from S.A. Fry (Vice Admiral, US Navy and Director, Joint Staff) so it appears to me that responsibility for the US armed forces "Failure to Respond" rests directly with Fry for issuing this instruction, as well as with Donald Rumsfeld for failing to execute his responsibility to issue orders in a timely fashion.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction CJCSI 3610.01A (dated 1 June 2001) was issued for the purpose of providing "guidance to the Deputy Director for Operations (DDO), National Military Command Center (NMCC), and operational commanders in the event of an aircraft piracy (hijacking) or request for destruction of derelict airborne objects." This new instruction superseded CJCSI 3610.01 of 31 July 1997.

This CJCSI states that "In the event of a hijacking, the NMCC will be notified by the most expeditious means by the FAA. The NMCC will, with the exception of immediate responses as authorized by reference d, forward requests for DOD assistance to the Secretary of Defense for approval."

Reference D refers to Department of Defense Directive 3025.15 (Feb. 18, 1997) which allows for commanders in the field to provide assistance to save lives in an emergency situation -- BUT any requests involving "potentially lethal support" (including "combat and tactical vehicles, vessels or aircraft; or ammunition") must still be approved by the Secretary of Defense. So again, the ability to respond to a hijacking in any meaningful fashion, is stripped from the commanders in the field.'

11. very interesting
I've had a notion for sometime that if 'they' didn't create 9/11 'they' have used it like they did.

14. Certainly. And I believe MIHOP is what happened.
I have yet to be convinced otherwise.

17. wow, somebody "believes the official story"
to that duer, if you haven't, please research the 9*11 threads here, and sites like fromthewilderness.com and, even tho its a controversial site here, whatereallyhappened.com.

The official story is bs.

I voted MIHOP (which means "made it happen on purpose"), tho I don't rule out LIHOP. Every time I give the goons in the current regime credit for being human, I get screwed.
